Prove the Effectiveness of the CME Program Itself

By comparing evaluations of the program's relevance and take-away value to doctors and especially their patients, you can gauge the overall effectiveness of the program.

Custom Solutions for Your Needs

We have worked with customers to incorporate audience response into many other, non-traditional areas. For example, we created a method to allow doctors to use our keypads to participate in the Hamilton Psychiatric Rating Scale for Depression, wherein they were shown video case studies then asked to rate the patients on the Hamilton Scale - using the keypads. The Scale called for a specific display that would show the compiled results for several questions that made up the evaluation. We designed a solution that collected, compiled and displayed the results in real time for the doctors to review and discuss.

Satellite Broadcast Meetings

Our system can collect real-time polling information from several meeting locations at the same time, acting as one virtual audience. We use your meeting's satellite network to present the questions, and our audience response network to collect the responses. It's a popular way to reach many physician audiences while placing the least amount of demand on their busy schedules.

Study Determines That Use of Audience Response Systems
Improve Content Retention by Over 50%

In an ongoing study aimed at measuring the effectiveness of an audience response system to help lecture-attendees retain information, a Chicago-based Family Practice residency program realized a 54% improvement in content retention rates while using audience response in their lectures, vs. the "traditional" format lecture.

T. Eric Schackow, M.D., Ph.D. and Michael Freidman, M.D. of the Department of Family Medicine, University of Illinois and St. Elizabeth Family Practice Residency Program, Chicago, conducted the study which supports the current trend by the medical community of increased interest in such systems for similar benefits.

Since retention rates of traditional didactic lectures often prove less than desirable, alternative methods of delivery are gaining ground among those in the medical community interested in improving the efficiency of their programs.

With the active participation required by an audience response system, and the straightforward presentation of key learning points typical of audience response lecture delivery, the lecture material is given much more staying power than before--proving the value of including such technology in any similar setting.
